Jakarta, CNN Indonesia –

Chief Imam of the Islamic Defenders Front (FPI) Rizieq Shihab open voice about the incident of the confrontation between the police and Laskar FPI on the Cikampek toll road, Monday (7/12) morning. In this incident, police officers shot and killed 6 members of the FPI Laskar.

In the audio recording obtained CNNIndonesia.com and confirmed by FPI Undersecretary General Aziz Yanuar, on Wednesday (9/12), Rizieq stated that his group did not know that the party carrying out the persecution was the police.

“None of us, not me, not my family, or the entire army of guards, thought that the one who was chasing us, jamming us, annoying us was the police. What we know is that they are bad people who want to hurt us,” Rizieq said.

Rizieq said that many cars were involved in chasing his entourage, not just one or two cars.

“Many cars took turns trying to move forward to get in front of Habib Hanif’s car, which was right behind me. Even to be able to catch up with my car in front,” he said.

When that happened, he claimed that the FPI Laskar who was conducting the escort had managed to control the situation so that the cars could not advance to the front of the group.

“That the accusation that our bodyguards were armed is a great slander, a great lie. None of our bodyguards were armed because we never thought, once again, that they would treat us like that. He was the usual standard family guard,” he said.

“Subhanallah, with the Takbir of Allah without them, these are martyrs, maybe they have sent us to the massacre they were planning,” Rizieq said.

After the persecution, Rizieq stated that he immediately mobilized his members to search for the missing bodyguards by walking along the toll road, visiting hospitals and even the police station. However, the effort was unsuccessful.

“The criminals who wanted to harm us were finally recognized as part of the Polda Metro Jaya investigation. We were not the ones who made the accusations, they did it,” Rizieq said.

In addition, Rizieq said, after the six bodies of the FPI paramilitaries were sent home by the police last Tuesday (12/8), his party thoroughly examined the state of the repatriated bodies.

He admitted that he had received a full examination report and that it would later be presented to the public.

“We convey to all the Indonesian people, we will take legal action in a procedural manner. We will be firm with anyone involved in this massacre. We will not let them sleep in peace,” Rizieq said.
